Pronouns are small but powerful words that often trip us up. This workout, the third in a series of four on grammar, focuses on paragraphs 5.30–40 in CMOS 18, which cover the definitions and uses of pronouns.
This workout returns to the usage list under paragraph 5.254 in CMOS 18. Today we focus on words beginning with the letters i through k. Writing and editing are more efficient when you never have to look up imply and infer or dither over “in regards to.”
This workout focuses on paragraphs 15.70–75 in CMOS 18. Advanced editors might tackle the questions cold; learners can study that section of the Manual before answering the questions.
This workout focuses on paragraphs 8.158–69 in CMOS 18. Advanced editors might tackle the questions cold; learners can study that section of the Manual before answering the questions.
This workout, the second in a series of four on the subject of grammar, focuses on paragraphs 5.22–25 in CMOS 18. Advanced editors might tackle the questions cold; learners can study that section of the Manual before answering the questions.
